Hi BigBen2K,
Just wondering if you could provide some evidence that backs up the statement the pump is running out of its optimal range, as everything that I've been able to find suggests that something like an Eheim 1048 pump is actually quite likely to be running in it's"optimal" range in a computer setup.
Thanks.
